Association of night shift work and biological ageing: the mediating role of body mass index
We showed that night shift work was associated with accelerated biological ageing. Our findings highlight the interventions on appropriate shift work schedules and weight management in night shift workers, which may slow the biological ageing process and ultimately reduce the burden of age-related diseases.
